These pretzels are making me thirsty.
Don't forget the muffler design - the design of chainsaw mufflers likely is the most limiting factor. It is limited how much a larger carb and more transfer capasity helps, with chainsaw style box mufflers.
Even with a tuned pipe there's only so much room in a piston ported,short stroke crank case
I would love to...but with a 2 year old and a 4 month old my traveling is gonna be limited to day trips to gtgs for a while....the pa gtg is pushing it for me down and back makes for a long dayBret, you need to get to KY in Sept.
You'd have a blast.......and I'd get to meet you.
Well which engine would rev more short stroke.

That is a very strange port layout.
I meant that's a very strange layout for a bikeBike engines allow much more creativity than saw engines. Which is one reason why race saw engines are often bike engines.

Looks cool, can't see me using that near a chipper though
Boost ports, auxiliary exhaust ports, primary and secondary transfers paired with case volume, full circle cranks and carburetors that are capable of keeping up there's very little you can't do.
The stroke also tends to me longer as well. For the same RPM as a saw, you get more piston speed and more potential flow/port timing.
i like the phrase ""I have a potty mouth""I like turtles.
